a bit of a back story... 2 years ago the stars aligned and God further showed his love to this sentimental mommy-to-be. if you know me well you know how much i miss our families. you know that i am {or so i've been told} an EXTREMELY sentimental person. you know that there are little things on this journey of medical school/residency/fellowship that i feel like we miss sharing with our families and i call them part of our sacrifice...other people might not think they fall into the category of sacrifice, but my heart puts them there.
many of these moments center around having our first child! one being able to tell our families in person that we were pregnant. we missed that opportunity...but not fully!
i will forever be grateful to the BUT of that statement! i was able to tell my sister that we were pregnant...in person...on a beach in california!!! oh the places He will take you to fulfill your dreams! it was a special moment that my cousin recorded for us! we even wrote baby crim's name in the sand...
on the same beach that his arrival was announced aunt chi chi again wrote his name in the sand...only with a few more details this time...his initials and his birth date! what a precious gift for him to have!!!
i read the card to him and then handed it to him...he "read" it back to us for a good 60 seconds...then proclaimed "AMEN!" dr. daddy and i laughed so hard...in part astonishment!
thank you aunt chi chi and uncle g...and for the hip beach shirts too! little tickle is one blessed babe to have you!
